I thought we could use a place to discuss analytics. Some are more interested in this topic than others, so I figured we could use a space to talk about analytics and the advanced stats movement.
I was just looking at the Off-Season Game Plan and a thought about SPSV% struck me. For a defenseman, this stat is less useful IMO for determining luck. Since the quality of a defender and his play around the net has a direct impact on his on-ice SV%, I find this stat a little less valuable for determining luck.
Any thoughts?
